05 May 2017Rugby Success for Jonathan and Joe

Two of our rugby players, Jonathan Park and Joe Connelly have been representing Newcastle Falcons recently in various tournaments. Jonathan was involved in an inter-academy U15 festival at Sheffield on Sunday and gave an excellent account of himself including scoring a try against Leicester Tigers. We hope that he has done enough to earn a place in the Academy U16 squad for next season.

Joe was involved for the second year running at Wellington School, competing for the Falcons against other premiership teams. Unfortunately he was unable to gain selection for England U16s but it is a fantastic achievement for him to get this far and we wish both boys well for the future.
